LAST DAY AT CADDO LAKE

Today is our last day here at Potter's Point here on Caddo Lake.  We are ready to move on down the road.  We are moving up to Milwood Lake just up above Texarkana. Milwood is on the Arkansas side of the border. Should be an interesting area with more cypress trees and waterlilies. Lots of pines trees. There they have warning signs out about watching out for alligators. Will really have to watch the girls closely as we have a waterfront campsite. Sure glad for the fencing we have for them. SuYang tends to jump out the door when we open it. Have been trying to teach her to stay but sometimes she forgets. They have no fear so would run right up to a gator. They are only little Shih Tzus but they think they are Rottweilers lol
Phil's new 16 megapixel Nikon camera is at the Walmart in Vivian this morning. He was not happy with the other camera that I gave him. It is a great camcorder but the photo camera part of it seemed to have blurry photos when it came to the close ups. Not good if you want to take photos of people. So he is getting an early Father's Day present from me. He is going to go over and get it today. Which is cool so now both of us can take blog pictures. Are you ready for that? lol

This morning he took his camera phone and when down to the lake...



The waterlilies are starting to bloom. They are standing up out of the water. Guess the water tempature is right for them now.  Hopefully, they will be blooming at Milwood also.


There are a lot of owls here at Caddo. (By the way that is pronounced cad doe. I was calling it Caydo until a local told me the pronounciation. ) This area is famous for the Barred Owl...



Well, I have to close this and get busy. Time to wash clothes and start the inside packing so we can get an early start on the road tomorrow.

Remember.... KEEP ON DANCING....
